Four Committees of the Orleans Parish School Board will hold their monthly meetings on Thursday, January 15, 2015, beginning at 1 p.m.  All meetings will be held in Room 4050 of OPSB's Timbers III Office Building at 3500 General De Gaulle. Committees may convene up to 30 minutes prior to posted times in order to facilitate the orderly flow of business.

 

Committees typically review and discuss issues that will later be presented to the full Board for approval at future Board Business meetings. They also review the progress of the implementation of items previously approved by the Board. The public's best opportunities for commenting on such issues are typically at the Committee Meetings.

 

OPSBrief has summarized below the issues expected to be discussed this month. To read the full agenda and related back-up documentation for any meeting, simply click on the meeting's title.
